It was a good overview on WHAT you need to know but it was lacking in examples especially for the diagrams. Or at least better descriptions on how to make these. Also it needs a bit of quality control the narrator on the last video told me to enjoy my machine learning adventure or something and the first question was about cyber security which has nothing directly to do with this course.
